(danjoe3) Custom world generation

[sand bane]

Hey there,

I've been wanting to try and generate a custom world that has custom structures and custom mobs within those structures or so, just to make it a PvE-based area or just to have random custom mobs be present around it.

I'm trying to incorporate a resource world, for players to gather resources, fight mobs, find loot, etc. It'd be nice to have it randomized as the map resets every 6 hours. Could you let me know how one could possibly do that? And IF I wanted to implement custom blocks into these custom generated chunks, how would one do it? Would love to learn about this!!

Hi I'm AutoThreadBot! Don't mind me, I'll just be adding the helper team to this thread so they can see it. A human will get to you soon.

maybe break it down into smaller categories.
if I understood correctly, you want:

1. custom world generation - datapack
2. custom structure generation - datapack (random? use jigsaw blocks + world gen)
3. custom mob spawning - denizen can handle this. just do world checks.
4. custom drops - denizen can handle this
5. custom block natural generation - denizen can handle this.

1. Alrighty, I'll look into data packs!
2. It acts as a Normal minecraft Vanilla map, where it randomizes the map generation based on a random seed? If that's possible. I'd also like to include builds of my own into the map, in those particular terrains
   The rest if it's possible through Denizen, then I'll create a separate thread regarding that

How would one start with datapacks and all?

I forgot where I got them but youtube around, there's 1 guy who was doing excellent examples of how to do custom world gen and join their discord.

Alright, I'll take a look 😬

I'm just keeping the thread open if I have any other questions regarding this

Did you ever figure out how to do the custom block natural generation woth Denizen? I'm currently working on a similar thing. Want to make a custom block that populates all over the world.
